Nina May - Washington DC

Nina May is always fantastic, but they deserve specific praise for how they handled my engagement party. The staff made it easy to plan and customize. When the event came the service, food, and atmosphere could not have been better. They made the day incredibly special (champagne toast to start was a great surprise! and we couldnt be more grateful. We cannot recommend Nina May enough, whether its a big event or a great dinner. Kudos!

Great staff and service. Food is also at an elevated level. The drinks are fantastic too. Both the cocktails and the mocktails. Love the beet cocktail and the cucumber non alcoholic drink. Patio is large with comfy couches and chairs. There is an open part and a fully covered part. Good for gatherings. The set tasting menu at 55 bucks per person is a really good deal but we went a la carte. The Parker House rolls with the butter topped with crispy chicken skin crackling…. OMG. The corn cavatella was another top dish. Don’t get the clams. The cacio e pepe agnolotti also fantastico. Tomato salad also good. Rockfish also good. But the cacio e Pepe dis, the Parker house rolls, and the corn dish are all must gets. Avoid the clams and the margarita. As I mentioned, service is great. I left my credi card and they called ti say that they had it. Another good reason to make a reservation. Desserts are okay except for the carrot cake which is way too wet. Moist is good but wet is claggy.

I came all the way from NYC and I will say that this restaurant satisfied big city families like us. I recommend it for here. Especially the heirloom tomato salad and pork chops. I will be back next time with more people

Nina May is amazing at hosting private events! My fiancé and I had our engagement party at the restaurant and it was a magical evening. The food, atmosphere, and entire team were incredible. We had a number of guests with dietary restrictions and the team went out of the way to accommodate them. Everything was seamless and we can’t thank them enough!

Absolutely loved Nina May! The service was fantastic and friendly, and the food was delicious. The quality and flavours were outstanding. Plus their wine recommendations were great too! We tried their homemade cavatelli, Pensilvania chicken, and pastrami dishes.
